Not another new router thread
 
Sorry to start a new thread to ask this but I don't really want to hijack an existing one and none that I have found are close enough to my request to be of any help.

Basically what I need is an N (Draft 2.0) router, specifically with gigabit Ethernet. Optionally I would quite like USB support (Printers mainly), Dual channel 5ghz or even something a bit special like the display on the belkin N1 Vision though obviously I can live without any of that its just the N (draft 2.0) and gigabit that are important to me.

And finally I would like that for £100 or less, though for something just that little bit extra special I could stretch to £150.

Some routers I have considered already but changed my mind based on reviews are....

Belkin N1 Vision - Looks so good I was going to buy it anyway and just hope I got a good one but managed to stop myself as it seems to have too many problems to list, lots of reports of faulty units and just bad firmware in general.

Netgear wndr3300 - Almost perfect but no gigabit Ethernet

Netgear WNR854T - Again so close to perfect but I think this is an early draft N and not 2.0.

Thanks in advance all.

Linksys WRT610N is gigabit and N standard. It does also have USB but unfortunately this is for connection of storage such as a USB hard disk, not a printer. I have this router and am happy with it. Might be a bit pricier than you really want though.

If the usb was for a print server I could maybe justify the £150 it'll cost me but its just that little bit too much without it. :( Does look nice though.
